Still hoping to connect..Karen -----Original Message----- From: Jim Zellers [mailto:zelmo@mediaone.net] Sent: Friday, June 15, 2001 10:30 AM To: OCONNELL-L@rootsweb.com Subject: RE: [OCONNELL-L] Roll Call Good morning to all, I have been researching John L. O'Connell. I have his date of birth as 1865 in Ireland (family says County Cork) but on the grave stone it says 1863 as date of birth. Anyways he came over from Ireland in ~1880 and ended up settling in Somerset, Mass (bordering Fall River, Mass) I have his fathers name listed as Thomas. He married Ellen Sullivan in 1886 and had 5 children. ( Julia, Katherine, John, Margaret, and Thomas in that order) They lived on a farm, and John L. died Sept.9. 1931 If anyone can help me learn more on this family I would be in your debt. I have been looking for a long time now, and there are so many John O'Connell's out there.... Thank you, Karen O'Connell Zellers
